DVD Transfer Diary
Alakazam the Great! (American version of the Toei film about the legend of the Monkey King, with pretty bad songs by Les Baxter, who did the Lassie theme), Tiny Toon Adventures: How I Spent My Vacation, the first two episodes of Spaceketeers (which were awful but the Jesse Dart character is parallel to the Alakazam character in the first movie so it made a good bookend), An Empire of Reason (cool special presented to celebrate the 200th birthday of the US Constitution; the premise: if television had covered the ratification—includes Walter Cronkite, John Chancellor, William F. Buckley—with appropriate commercials), and "City of Death" from Doctor Who (am I the only person who wished Duggan had gone on to travel with the Doctor?).
